Arab TornadoThe FHA 203(h) Disaster Relief Loan is available for residents affected by the recent tornadoes that swept through Alabama on April 27, 2011. This special FHA loan is specifically designed to help victims in Presidentially designated disaster areas recover by making it easier for them to get mortgages and become homeowners or re-establish themselves as homeowners.

For a limited time HUD is waiving the 3.5% down payment requirement on any home buyer whose previous residence or apartment was destroyed or substantially damaged by the recent storms. This means you can get 100% Financing on your new home.  Both the upfront mortgage insurance and monthly mortgage insurance premiums still apply.

Here are the general program parameters for the FHA 203(h) Loan: FHA 203h Loan
